Tennis Tips - The right tennis grip

The measurement you are looking for is the length between the
middle of your palm to the tip of your ring finger. That is the
finger next to your little finger. This length should be the
same distance as the grip around the handle of the racquet.
Young people will be less than four inches where as an average
woman is about four and an eighth to four and three eighth
inches. A man is about four and a half inches to four and three
fourth inches.

This grip must be replaced when it wears smooth or begins to
separate from the handle. It is best to change it often
depending on how many times you play tennis a week. The type of
grip recommended for your racquet can be found in the inside
throat. There are two types of replacement tennis grips.

Those are "cushioned" and "firm". The firm is made of high
density calfskin, or cowhide leather. This is preferred by those
players who want to feel the ball meet the racquet. If you want
relief for your hand, you should choose the cushioned grip.
However this choice makes it hard to feel the ball touch your
racquet.

Fitness Tips

This year focus on changing up your workouts to help you achieve your goals! Your body adapts to everything! This applies to your diet and exercise, or lack of it. If you start walking a route in your neighborhood and think you can just do that forever- you're wrong! Ever noticed you start on new cardio equipment at the gym and it is hard to get through 20 minutes, but after a month you are hardly out of breath? That means it is time to mix it up and do something new. Try rowing, stairs, or a new group exercise class. Hire a trainer to learn new workouts. Mix it up this year!
